3 Previous Questions What type of catalyst will we be using in the primary reformer? What is the lowest purity of oxygen the oxygen fuel booster can operate with? Impurity concerns iron ore feed.

4 Design Basis 0.126 mmlbmols/day of natural gas feedstock will be supplied for process from Gas Treatment Plant; natural gas is the main source for Carbon for the reformer Supply the back-end CO 2 to Industrial Gases Plant, 0.0518 mmlbmols/day Air Separations and Syngas Plant will supply 0.004 mmlbmols/day of O 2 for the Oxy Booster in ration (0.9 O 2 : 0.1 N 2 )

Diameter, 26 ft. length f = Maximum heat flux thorough tube walls = 21,000 Btu/ft 2 *hr d = Heat duty through primary reformer (from Aspen) = 279,515,872 Btu/hr a = Total needed surface area of reformer tubes = d/f = 14,167 ft 2 t = a /73 ft 2 per tube = 194 tubes needed

13 Cost Production (ton/yr)1,840,000 Production cost ($/ton) Materials, Utilities, Transportation, Wages 295 Product Sell Price ($/ton)425 Profit per ton ($/ton)130 Total profit per Year ($)239,920,000

14 Transportation Costs By Rail For Feed/Product Basis of 1.84mm ton produced 5,041 (ton/day) Average rail car holds 80tons. With a maximum load per train of approximately 15,000ton and 150 cars Plant will need a train every 2days of approximately 130 cars. Average cost to ship by rail 0.03($/ton mile) Assuming a discounted rate of 25% for large volume of material transported. Using northeast Minnesota for iron oxide source and northwest Indiana for product shipment. Cost to ship 23.00($/ton) to ship product 12.00($/ton) import raw material.

15 Shipping/Storage Installed equipment cost for a private rail line with loading/unloading site at our capacity will be around 15mil Storage facility with installed in-loading/out- loading conveyor system, a negative pressure dust/ climate management system, and a 150ton capacity will cost around 10mil
